Princess and Conquest

Journey the land as an anonymous knight and turn the tides of conflict as you choose to ally with different princesses in Princess & Conquest. Also, did we mention this is a hentai game? Because it absolutely is, and the lewd content might be a bit more shocking than some players might be expecting, mainly due to the cutesy character designs.

Princess & Conquest follows in the steps of some of the most successful h-games out there, branching from its status as merely a naughty game and becoming so much more in the process. It isn’t without fail, though, namely in the controls department. However, due to the sheer amount of content and genuinely charming art direction, it’s hard to not give this one a pass.

Political Frictions

Following the disappearance of a powerful dragon, the kingdom lies in chaos. It’s up to you, as a brave knight, to return the land to its former glory – or plunge it further into madness. Choices you make impact the state of the kingdom, and to guarantee a successful mission, you’ll have to enlist the help of several princesses across the land.

Of course, being an h-game, “enlisting” usually means having sexual intercourse with them. But before you get to that, you’ll need to earn their trust via some intricate RPG questing. Unlike some other adult visual novels that seem desperate to get to the next h-scene (Summertime Saga comes to mind,) Princess & Conquest’s sex scenes feel more like another part of the game, rather than a reward for bearing with it for so long.

Breeding and Lineage

Veterans of Crusader Kings II might be familiar with the concept of lineages, and how important they are to keeping a kingdom. While they might not be as robust as what we’ve come to expect from grand strategy games, your lineage is a vital part of Princess & Conquest.

As you befriend more princesses, you’ll get to have children with them. These children inherit some of their mother’s traits, and also will join you in your quest to save the land. This isn’t the only way to enlist companions, however, as the game can be pretty creative when it comes to that.

We can’t stress enough just how much of an actual RPG experience this game is. While the obvious RPG Maker limitations can be seen in some places (like the overworld graphics,) Princess & Conquest still manages to have its fair share of dungeons, towns, and more importantly, loads of NPCs.

Control Issues

Perhaps the only negative aspect of the whole experience has to do with the game’s controls. We’ve grown accustomed to the WASD control scheme, and even if that’s nowhere to be seen here, the solution the developers have come up with is less than ideal.

The arrow keys awkwardly control your character, and to remap some of the game’s keys you’ll have to press the F1 key, rather than using a dedicated settings menu. This might sound like a chore, and to a point, it is, but that’s just in the overworld movement.

Other than that, there’s hardly anything that substantially affects the overall gameplay. Even better is the fact that the developers seem to be actively fixing stuff and adding new content with each update.

Pros

• Tons of unique illustrations
• Rich RPG world
• Great dialogue
• Loads of customization options

Cons

• Awkward controls
• Art style might not be to everyone’s liking

Princess & Conquest is a tremendous lewd RPG that is themed around monster girls! As soon as I hear the phrase, “monster girls” I am all in and that was certainly the case with this game. I had a great time with this and as I write this the developer is still working on it, but out of all the lewd games I have played over the last few years, this one here is one of the best when it comes to frequent updates.

The Kingdom Is Crumbling

The world that Princess & Conquest is set in is a fun fantasy world, but a special dragon has gone missing and now the various races and houses that call this kingdom home are in chaos. We play as a knight and we get to decide if you are going to try and fix things by going on an epic quest to get this dragon back and put the kingdom back in order, or will we just go with the flow, embrace the chaos and do whatever it is we want to do?

Monsters Are People Too

I just love the entire tone of Princess & Conquest. This is such a charming and fun game, it is a game that is not taking itself too seriously at all and there are a ton of characters that you can interact with. Most of the characters that I have encountered have been very well written and I wanted to get to know them better. However, when you meet a character and decide to take them with you, you do not always know if that character has an end point if you get what I am saying. I got attached to one particular character and it just kind of fizzled out. Thankfully, there are so many characters here, that you will easily find one or a few to latch onto.

I Wanna Hold Your Hand

Gameplay wise, Princess & Conquest has a whole lot going on, this is a full fledged RPG, not some kind of wandering around lewd game with a few RPG mechanics sprinkled on top! There is a pretty deep and fun class system with various skills and gear that you can play around with for each of the classes. There are a ton of characters, combat that is fun, dungeons to explore, fun raids, and tons of quests. There is always something to do in this game! My only complaint is that the quests could do with a little bit more direction as I did have to use a guide on a couple of occasions for some of the main quests. The side stuff though was just so much fun to wander around and get into various situations. One thing that I have to say about this game is that I never once felt bored the entire time I was playing it. There is a fun breeding system at play here too, but that is not the only way to add new members to your ranks!

Monster Hunter Girls Gone Wild

I hope you like that little play on words I did there. Princess & Conquest is a great looking game, the story is kind of quirky and charming and I would say that is the same for the visuals. I love the pixel art in this game, it is just so much fun to look at and I think that they did a great job with the character designs. There are some super cute monster girls in the game, but also some more weird and gross looking creatures as well. This is one of those games where the artist has well and truly made sure that there is something for everyone here. The lewd content is fun with you being able to choose what kind of sex happens with many of the characters. I would also get a huge kick out of the character portraits as these were a ton of fun and the artist was really able to showcase the character's personalities here. One of the most surprising aspects of the game was the soundtrack. The game has a very upbeat and catchy soundtrack that fits the style of things perfectly.

Pros:

• I thought the story was a lot of fun
• There are many interesting and weird characters in this game
• The pixel art is gorgeous
• The gameplay is very varied and has a lot going on

Cons:

• The developer is not all the way finished with the game as I write this
• Some of the quests could explain things a tad better
